Another honourable Sabbath, another opportunity to take delight in the LORD our God, keeping the Sabbath holy, forsaking our own pleasure, desisting from our own ways, not talking idly or speaking our own words (see Isaiah 58:13-14), but finding rest for our souls in Him. Blessed is everyone who keeps the Sabbath and does not profane it.
The seventh day Sabbath is God’s gift to humanity. It was blessed and sanctified by God after He had created the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them. It was written into the Ten Commandments by His finger, was kept and taught by Jesus Christ, and was observed by the apostolic church. It should be faithfully remembered and kept by believers now as a day of rest, worship, and well-doing.
The Sabbath, as outlined in Genesis 2:1-3 and Exodus 20:8-11, falls on the seventh day of the week, which is Saturday. However, it’s important to note that according to Genesis 1:5, God declared that a new day begins at evening (sundown), not at midnight. Therefore, the Sabbath begins at evening on Friday and ends at evening on Saturday.
I really like this verse:
-- Mark 2:27
We were not meant to work and worry ourselves into the ground seven days a week. It's a day to worship, rest and heal for the benefit of your soul, your body, your emotions and your mind, and to glorify and bring yourself closer to God.
Also we should desist from our own ways seven days a week, not just on the Sabbath. One thing worship on the Sabbath was not meant to be was a "Get out of jail free" card for sinning all week, and going to church is not meant to be a hot tub feel-good seminar.
Only God gives and takes from every (all) to each (one)...keeping tempts one to ignore Gods divine/dividing process.
Bless/bloth (blood) from bhel - "to thrive"...thriving implies each ones growth within all, which once again cannot be kept aka taken into possession without diminishing growth potential.
Sabbath (rest) contradicts the (theos; God)...taking sabbath tempts one to ignore all given animation. There's no intermission of labor within Gods work...only ones ignorance thereof.
Pro (forwards) fane (to set) implies all setting each one forwards...not/nihilo (nothing) implies ones de-nial thereof.
To (towards) + de (to divide)...that's how all light moves towards each divided ray within. If one takes delight; then one obfuscates (to make dark) ones perception of all light.
Given de-light implies enlightenment; taking delight implies ignorance.
Holy (whole) implies Gods animation (procession) of each partial (potential) within...keeping (possession) tempts ones mind into the "motionless" state of ignorance.
Above (heaven) + below (earth) implies an internal division from one another, hence not a creation out of nothing, but a transformation within everything into each thing.
FOR implies a process; OUR implies a possession...SOULS implies a suggested pluralism tempting ones singular perception to take and hold onto a possession.
In reality...soul/sole implies the one and only process (God) animating each unit within.
